Would it kill you to at least capitalize for the first post? 😛
It's sorta too early to really call anything on this; nothing has been revealed thus far, nothing too significant, at least. Opinions for this topic, for the time being, will basically branch into another PS2 vs Xbox debate, and why their predecessor would be better, even though we have seen no concrete evidence on either of them, except that they'll be coming out.
the ps3 and xbox 2 is early to debate but I just want to include this from the Rockstar Games president-
-"We're looking at the next generation of hardware for sure, and if you think about the enormous difference between PS1 and PS2 and then do the calculations on how much more we'll be able to do if the leap is to the same degree to PS3..."-OPM
so i guess we can expect a lot from future games
I'm personally looking forward to the Xbox 2. I want to fully mod my old Xbox console and use the newer Xbox for live. The PS3 most likely will be more popular during the first month of release. Unless both come out during Christmas time. But then again is too early to tell which one will sell the most or be better. The question is.....how much more will they cost?
Sorry for the double post. Check out this article from IGN:

Is for the Xbox 2 😉
PS3
Even though the xbox will have better games it will require a memory card because Microsoft will not install the internal harddrive inside because that's what they did with the first xbox and they ended up losing lots of money. 100 dollars an xbox to be more precise.
Which means no more custom music on your Xbox and I still don't know if they will put the DVD player with it or sell it separate like before.

well i think to tell who would make money would be who releases their system first, because if ps3 came out first everyone would want to buy it right away. some would wait but most would just want to buy it since its out first. but if xbox 2 comes out first then it will make the more of money. when both come out then there will be a tough competition

Yes and no. I don't think is necessarily which one will be released first. Is a matter of fanbase. If PS3 keeps control of the FF series then most likely they will be succesful as far as sales. If FF goes to the Xbox then there might be a slight shift. But to be fair if Bungie decides to do business with Sony then when posibly see Halo going with PS3. Then things wouldn't be so beneficial for Microsoft.
i read about some new console called the Nintendo Revolution, shouldnt that be included in the next gen consoles?
-the rumours r nintendo is breakin tradition and will not use a d-pad and a and b buttons....innovative? or stupid? gotta have the d pad
from IGN
"Revolution Controller Breaks Tradition?
Japanese weekly reports next console controller does away with staple features.
By IGN Staff
December 23, 2004 - Earlier this week, the respected Japanese business magazine Shuukan Diamond reported in its 2005 Preview Edition that the Nintendo Revolution Controller will not feature a directional pad or A and B buttons.
If the news turns out to be true, Revolution would be the first Nintendo console to not feature a D-Pad and the A/B button combo. Nintendo has long said that it seeks to innovate with new control mechanisms, as evidenced by the inclusion of a touch screen on the Nintendo DS.
Given the focus of setting the A and B buttons on the GameCube controller apart from the now industry standard four-button layout, it will be interesting to see what new setup Nintendo is planning to bring to the table.
According to Shuukan Diamond, the wait will not be long. The magazine reports that Nintendo will debut GameCube's successor at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, May 2005.
None of the magazine's claims were substantiated by Nintendo, but given the publication's track record of accurate business reporting since 1913, we'd be surprised if Diamond's claims turned out to be false. "
yea, and xbox would be concidered adults cause of all those perverted games they got with the girls on it. but halo and halo 2...just if that was on playstation, wow. they probably wont give it to playstation because they know that they will get a lot more money that way. yet why not give san andreas and in return receive halo 2? 🙂
